Dear JDMS Families, Over the past two days, we have experienced two physical altercations involving students. While these incidents are not reflective of the positive school culture we have worked hard to establish, they serve as an important reminder of the expectations we hold for every Jr. Raider. Let me be clear: Fighting, instigating conflict, and encouraging violence will not be tolerated at JDMS. We will respond swiftly and appropriately to behavior that compromises the safety and well-being of our school community. Our commitment, however, extends beyond discipline. We are committed to building a school culture grounded in our four Core Values: Unconditional Love, Family, Educational Excellence, and Community. Being a Jr. Raider comes with a standard—one that requires respect, accountability, self-control, and making good choices, even in difficult moments. Middle school is a time of growth, and we recognize that our children will make mistakes. We will continue to pour into them, model expectations, provide guidance, and hold them accountable because we believe in who they are and who they can become. We ask for your partnership in reinforcing these expectations at home. Encourage your children to seek help when conflicts arise. Our administrators, guidance counselors, teachers, and staff in The Zone are here to support them. Every problem has a solution, and violence is never the answer. Two incidents do not define our school community. What defines us is how we respond, the standards we uphold, and our unwavering commitment to helping every child succeed. Thank you for your continued partnership and trust. With Jr. Raider Pride, Dr. Laura Mathieu Principal Janis E. Dismus Middle School Rise Together – Let’s Change the World! Queridas familias de JDMS, En los últimos dos días, hemos experimentado dos altercados físicos que involucran a los estudiantes. Si bien estos incidentes no reflejan la cultura escolar positiva que hemos trabajado duro para establecer, sirven como un recordatorio importante de las expectativas que tenemos para cada Jr. Asaltante. Permítanme ser claro: luchar, instigar conflictos y fomentar la violencia no será tolerado en JDMS. Responderemos rápida y adecuadamente al comportamiento que comprometa la seguridad y el bienestar de nuestra comunidad escolar. Nuestro compromiso, sin embargo, se extiende más allá de la disciplina. Estamos comprometidos a construir una cultura escolar basada en nuestros cuatro valores fundamentales: amor incondicional, familia, excelencia educativa y comunidad. Ser un Jr. Raider viene con un estándar, uno que requiere respeto, responsabilidad, autocontrol y tomar buenas decisiones, incluso en momentos difíciles. La escuela secundaria es un momento de crecimiento, y reconocemos que nuestros hijos cometerán errores. Seguiremos invirtándonos en ellos, modelando las expectativas, proporcionando orientación y haciéndolos responsables porque creemos en quiénes son y en quiénes pueden convertirse. Le pedimos su colaboración para reforzar estas expectativas en casa. Anime a sus hijos a buscar ayuda cuando surjan conflictos. Nuestros administradores, consejeros de orientación, maestros y personal en The Zone están aquí para apoyarlos. Cada problema tiene una solución, y la violencia nunca es la respuesta. Dos incidentes no definen a nuestra comunidad escolar. Lo que nos define es cómo respondemos, los estándares que mantenemos y nuestro compromiso inquebrantable de ayudar a cada niño a tener éxito. Gracias por su continua colaboración y confianza. Con Jr. Orgullo de los Raiders, Dra. Laura Mathieu Principal Janis E. Escuela secundaria Dismus Levántate juntos - ¡Cambiemos el mundo!
